Øyvind A. Holm 50f837371d drm/vmwgfx: Revert "drm/vmwgfx: Replace numeric parameter like 0444 with macro"
This reverts commit 2d8e60e8b0 ("drm/vmwgfx: Replace numeric
parameter like 0444 with macro")

The commit belongs to the series of 1285 patches sent to LKML on
2016-08-02, it changes the representation of file permissions from the
octal value "0600" to "S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR".

The general consensus was that the changes does not increase
readability, quite the opposite; 0600 is easier to parse mentally than
S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR.

It also causes argument inconsistency, due to commit 04319d89fb
("drm/vmwgfx: Add an option to change assumed FB bpp") that added
another call to module_param_named() where the permissions are written
as 0600.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
